i i AM
I am a New Orleans artist from a family of artists. I began drawing when I was eight years old, copying my mother's art. I have an Art degree from Southeastern La. College, and a graduate degree in Education. After many years teaching elementary school and becoming a librarian there also, I retired from teaching so that I can spend my time painting, writing, sketching, and taking photographs. I have photographs from France, Manila, the Grand Canyon; Whitefish, Montana, and the Great Smokey Mountains. Some in color, but I prefer black and white. I took many photographs of the aftermath of Katrina, the black and white ones are on this site.
I paint in acrylics. Subjects are varied from lighthouses to music themes, but I especially like to paint from the photos I take of the beautiful scenery in my travels.
I wrote a book about my and my family's experiences after Katrina called, 9/18-EBR-ZERO, Hauntings of Katrina. It is available on Amazon.com. and CreateSpace. For more information about the book, and the others I have since written, click on "BOOKS".
